We were in town on a Sunday and Monday when most places are not open late. We were able to get dessert and a night cap. We sat at the bar. Our server was very attentive. She made a really good drink for me who does really like the taste of alcohol. We also had the berry cheesecake. It was super good and we really enjoyed the bar area. Lucky for us we were staying right upstairs.

Ate supper there last night before heading to our room. The 8 ounce burger had to be the most tender burger I’ve ever eaten. 5 star food and service…granted it was our first time there but first impressions mean alot to me.

This place was FANTASTIC. The staff were so kind, the hotel is absolutely beautiful, and the food was amazing, definitely the best we had on our trip. We would definitely come back if/when we return to Salem. Get the bourbon steak tips, you won’t regret it.

My husband got the lobster Mac n cheese, could have been a little bit more lobster in it. I got the surf & turf and the sauce was great! Potatoes were a little on the average side. My son got the French dip and the bread was huge but he said it was really good. Finished off desert with creme brulee, sundae & chocolate mouse cake… all were good!

Great environment, service and food. For hotel food, the expectation wasn’t super high, but they delivered a solid meal. The chicken sandwich was a huge hit and nachos were good. I recommend this place if you are in Salem!

The only thing saving this place is the roasted cauliflower and interior decoration. This restaurant is the reason why the northeast is known to be deprived of culture. The nachos came unreasonably overcooked. What’s worse? Dry chicken on top, flavorless and white. How do you mess up a grilled cheese. It’s bulletproof. Cheese. Bread. Butter. Heat. But when you bit into it, it was like biting into the dry chicken that was on the nachos. That being said, tip your waiter/waitress if you go and curse the chef/management when you leave.

We were in the area and stopped in for a late lunch. Staff was super friendly and the hotel is beautiful. We ordered the chips with truffle parmesan which were delicious. We also ordered the bolognese and fancy grilled cheese which were great as well. Highly recommend the Witches Brew cocktail!
